IT 640 Milestone One Guidelines and Rubric
Project Analysis Plan
Overview: For your final project, you will assume the role of a network consultant for SNHUEnergy Inc., an organization looking to expand its communication
reach. Refer to the Final Project Scenario document for details. You have been tasked with analyzing the current network architecture of the organization and
determining any key changes that should occur as the organization prepares for future growth. You will evaluate traffic patterns to determine critical aspects of
your business and provide basic insight into what should be done to the network from a capability aspect and from a security viewpoint as the organization
prepares for future growth. Ultimately, you will recommend a design for the future network architecture of the organization.
Prompt: Your first milestone for this project will be the creation of a project analysis plan. Your plan will identify the network applications of the current network
including a description of how the current network is designed by explaining how the different layers of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model relate to
each other within the network.

in terms of day-to-day business operations. Consider the
following questions as a guide to
your analysis:
o What is the impact of losing connectivity between the Dallas
router and the Memphis router? Which applications might be
impacted between
locations?
o What is the risk of just having a single router or switch within
the Memphis office?
o How effective is the firewall in the current network?
